justnzane Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 how bout matt leinhart, or Reggie Bush...then we draft an OLB to replace TKO because he sucks...then we draft a punter in the 3rd because moorman is a bum...then a KR because our return game is terrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrobot Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 My props to Mario Williams. He was awesome in yesterday's game. That said, I'd like Ngata at DT, and think about a 3-4 with our personnel. I like RRich's idea of acquiring Backus. Reggie Bush, D'Brickashaw Ferguson, Vince Young, and Matt Leinart will probably be gone when we pick, or that's my assumption at this point. Go Bills!

Brandon Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Mario Williams would be my choice at this point, with Kiwanuka a very close 2nd. The Bills haven't had a good pass rush from the front four in years. They will finally have a chance to add an elite pass rusher and I don't think that's an opportunity they can afford to pass up. Big, athletic pass rushing DEs are probably the rarest of the rare in the NFL these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make it alot easier for the dt's to roam around and seal the middle if we had a end who was getting doulbled on a consistant basis. Thus letting the dt's and the lb's roam more freely.

Considering we're probably going to pick in the teens somewhere, it's a fair guess to say Bush, Ferguson, Young, and Leinart will be gone by then. More than likely, all of them will be gone by pick #10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 We should be relogated to the Canadian League...or College...or PeeWee football until we are good enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drifter Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 As of today the Bills would be picking anywhere between 10 and 15. We can't forget there teams that are much worse than the Bills. I know it's a sad commentary on the quality of the league, but it's true. What top linemen will last beyond the 10th pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's a sad commentary on the quality of the league, but it's true. What top linemen will last beyond the 10th pick? 513627[/snapback] On the offensive side of the ball, OT Eric Winston Miami and Jonathan Scott Texas should be there. By most accounts Winston's deemed worthy a top 10 pick where Scott could fall to the 15-32 range. In terms of defense DTs Rodrigue Wright Texas seems to rank below Ngata.

Sisyphean Bills Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Jonathan Scott of Texas (big guy @ 6-7 and 315 w/ a nice wingspan and good skills who hasn't scratched the surface of his potential yet) 511823[/snapback] "He's the next Mike Williams."

R. Rich Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 "He's the next Mike Williams." 513963[/snapback] Other than both of them going to Texas, they have little in common. Big Mike is more like another Longhorn OL who preceeded him-Leonard Davis. Both are huge, not very athletic, but have good footwork. Scott is not as big as those two (315 as opposed to the 350-365 range both Davis and Williams were @ UT) and is more athletic. He also has a rep as a hard worker w/ no off the field issues. He's been knocked for having trouble w/ edge rushers and for not being consistent, but such negatives were also said of the guy he is often compared to in terms of playing style: Walter Jones.

Tcali Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Marcus McNeilor Winston Justice 509976[/snapback] PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ--no more MONSTER OTs...hope fully we learned our lesson...Gimme an athletic hard werking 290 pounder any day. What we need is a talented passrusher.automatically all of our LBs and DBs will become better.That shoiuld be our first priority. Then--we need to go FA market for 2 professional O-lineman--noy greast ones but solid...and pick one up in round 2 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACTOBILLSFAN Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I don't think he is projected to be a 1st rounder, but I really like this Oshinowo kid, the DT from Stanford. He is playing well against ND. Reminds me of a young Pat Williams. He eats up at least 2 blockers every play and gets an excellent jump on the snap. I'd rather see 2 DL and a LB with the top 3 picks. I think OL are extremely risky picks in the 1st couple rounds. I'd rather see OL addressed in Free Agency. 513178[/snapback] Yeah i've liked this kid for awhile and he blew up some run plays against ND playing alongside very little talent...could be a great 2nd round pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 The funny thing is, the Bills have won JUST enough games to take them out of the running for any real talent. How very Buffalo. Succeed just enough to fail. Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll lose out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BackInDaDay Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Multiple people could post their choices and all would probably make sense. TD, of course, will select a TE/Long Snapper with an eye patch and a prosthesis. 509886[/snapback] Is the prosthesis the strap on kind? 509935[/snapback] He knocked his eye out bending over to tie his shoe. Does that answer your question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, highly ranked Texas lineman haven't exactly been setting the NFL on fire of late. The part that does sound exactly like Fat Mike is the "untapped potential" business. Please, just get a guy that can play now and let's not **** around with these diamonds in the rough, maybe, could be, if Lady Luck smiles on us types.

Jonathan Vilma is a great young LB who hasn't reached his potential either. I'm not saying Scott can't play or is an adequate blocker. That's incorrect. He's very good, and will only get better.
